The Tudor Pelagos (Blue Dial)

The Definitive Modern Diver’s Instrument

The Tudor Pelagos is widely regarded as one of the most complete traditional mechanical divers' watches available today.1 A magnificent example of a tool watch, it is a tribute to the brand’s history of providing reliable timepieces to the world’s most elite navies. This specific model, featuring a vibrant matte blue aesthetic, represents the perfect marriage of high-tech material science and classic maritime heritage. Designed for the professional diver and the discerning collector alike, it is built to endure the most extreme conditions known to man.

Aerospace Innovation: Grade 2 Titanium

The Pelagos is distinguished by its full titanium construction. Titanium is the material of choice for aerospace and saturation diving because it is approximately 40% lighter than stainless steel while being far more resistant to the corrosive effects of seawater.2 The entire 42mm case and bracelet are finished with a sophisticated satin-brushed texture that eliminates glare, giving the watch a focused, industrial appearance that is as functional as it is handsome.3

The striking matte blue dial and matching ceramic bezel are engineered for absolute legibility.4 It features Tudor’s iconic "Snowflake" hands—a design hallmark since 1969—alongside square hour markers that are generously filled with high-performance blue-glowing luminescent material.5

A Masterclass in Technical Engineering

Inside the Pelagos beats the Manufacture Calibre MT5612, a high-performance in-house movement.6 It is COSC-certified (Swiss Official Chronometer Testing Institute) and features a non-magnetic silicon hairspring, ensuring peak accuracy even when exposed to magnetic fields.7 With a 70-hour power reserve, the watch is "weekend-proof," meaning it can be taken off on Friday and remain perfectly synchronized for Monday morning.8

For professional divers, the Pelagos includes an automatic helium escape valve at the 9 o'clock position, a necessity for saturation diving.9 Furthermore, the patented folding clasp features a unique self-adjusting spring mechanism. This allows the bracelet to contract at depth (as the wetsuit compresses) and expand as the diver ascends, providing an optimal fit at all times.10

Key Benefits

• Extreme Depth Performance: Water-resistant to a staggering 500 meters (1,640 feet), making it a true professional-grade diving tool.11

• Lightweight Comfort: The titanium build ensures that the watch remains comfortable and balanced on the wrist, despite its robust proportions.12

• Superior Lume: The ceramic bezel insert is injected with luminous material—a rare and premium feature that allows for timing dives in total darkness.13

• Proprietary Clasp: The "auto-adjustable" spring clasp is widely considered one of the most innovative and comfortable designs in the luxury watch world.14

• In-House Reliability: The Manufacture movement offers long-term durability, high precision, and an impressive three-day power reserve.
